The key to cooking like Freddsters is adding a squeeze of lime and a whole lot of heart. So, grab an apron and let’s make it!Alfredo Garcia (better known as social media sensation Freddsters) is a first generation Mexican American. Born in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas and raised in Chicago. His vivacious and loveable personality comes across in his viral content, where he explores the ways in which his American upbringing and his Mexican heritage blend in the kitchen. Naturally, Alfredo’s cookbook also features Mexican-inspired versions of American classics and modern twists. You’ll learn how to master authentic Mexican staples, like how to make your own tortillas and cook a big pot of frijoles, and then you’ll be able to use those foundations to create over 100 fusion masterpieces. Think Jalapeno Popper Tacos, Chori-queso Baked Spaghetti, and Poblano Caesar Salad.Whether you’re looking for a fresh twist on tres leches cake (try a bit of matcha powder!) or the most delectable pico de gallo to bring to the carne asada, Let’s Make It has got you covered.

Alfredo Garcia, who has been both a prosecuting and a defense attorney in criminal processes, reviews the United States Supreme Court's interpretations of the Sixth Amendment--the right to a fair trial--as they have evolved since the 1960s. He determines that the Court, with a few notable exceptions, has demonstrated doctrinal inconsistency and has failed to adhere to the core values embedded in the amendment. Garcia argues that the functional and symbolic roles of the Sixth Amendment have been eroded, and that this is particularly evident in the three clauses that provide defendants the means to respond to charges and to be assured of fair process. The clauses considered specifically involve the right to counsel, the right to confrontation, and the right to compulsory process. The Supreme Court's emphasis in more recent years is perceived to be on efficiency rather than on protecting the ideal of a fair trial.The six chapters cover the rights to counsel, to confrontation, to compulsory process, to a speedy trial, and to a jury trial, and the sometime conflict between a free press (First Amendment) and the Sixth Amendment assurance of a fair trial free of antecedent prejudicial publicity. This is a timely, much-needed, and substantive examination of the highest court's interpretations of a defendant's constitutional right to a fair, speedy trial.

The Fifth Amendment is typically equated in both popular and legal discourse with the privilege against self-incrimination. This concept, Garcia reminds us, represents an incomplete view of the amendment. Often forgotten are the other two criminal clauses embodied in the text of the amendment: the right to a grand jury indictment for a serious crime and the freedom from double jeopardy for the same offense.Garcia emphasizes the relationship among these criminal protections. Historical developments suggest that these seemingly disparate provisions have common threads: to provide constitutional protection for all trial-related rights. Underlying these constitutional provisions is the need to check the potential abuse of governmental power over the individual. Indeed, this theme permeated the historical backdrop to the Fifth Amendment. Finally, Garcia examples the practical ties of these clauses. The right to a grand jury indictment, the privilege against self-incrimination and the protection against double-jeopardy represent points in the continuum of the criminal justice process. An important resource for scholars and students involved with Amerian constitutional law, criminal justice, and criminology.
